But sometimes we can let ourselves follow our instincts to make decisions because that is happened to me before. When I am confused about which team I need to pick, I let my instinct to choose after I am quiet for some time. But that will not happen too often as I realize that when picking our choice, we will need to use analysis and find more information. That will give us the chance to win and not have to listen to our instincts. But I heard that some people often listen to their instincts to make decisions although they already use their skills to analyze. However, the outcome will depend on their luck.

That is the plus minus of relying on instincts when gambling, you will not know exactly how the results of your gambling will be and it will be entirely based on your luck alone. That's why when gambling one should use their instincts only at certain times, because it could be that what your instincts say is right and you win big, but if the opposite then you will lose. And always make sure that the risk is in line with our capabilities, because relying on instinct is uncertain and if the results are not what we expect, at least we understand the risks and are ready to accept it.

Some pro players train their intuition for years, listen to their inner voice, catch luck by the tail. And sometimes they manage to hit the jackpot! So maybe it's not just about skills and analysis, but also about some kind of super sense?  Huh

On many occasions I play and I run out of ideas if I follow my instinct, but for a very short time, I do it but not as the first option, but seeing all the answers and knowing that most casino games are random and by pure luck, well it has helped me see that sometimes we should first play by pure instinct to see how we do? It may be that we win, because many strategies can be Applied and we can do well or badly, what difference is there if we follow our instincts before a strategy? it is interesting.

We can use our instincts and strategies, if we see the opportunities that open up in the gambling game you are playing, then you can use these two things. If the round we play is not good or not good then our instincts will definitely not be able to finish the game, and this is where the strategy emerges and we use it to minimize your losses in gambling, in my opinion it is very risky. if you continue playing gambling games. if you only use instinct in playing.

I think mood is also included in instinct because the brain works through what we feel for example you are in good condition and you really want to gamble on a game that makes you curious it could be your best day to win gambling, on the other hand if your mood is bad your instincts are definitely not good for gambling but you are determined because you want to channel your gambling passion but instead you will find defeat.
But sometimes instincts are not always right and sometimes the results can be different from what we think.

Yep, that is why instinct will be our guide when we are confused with the choice because I hear something say that I should pick the one. But sometimes the instinct is not real instinct but that is our minds that pick the choice for us which lead us getting lose. When you use your instinct, that will be 50-50 but we have more chance to win as that can be a real sign for us to choose the right one. Ah, I can not explain it better but I feel it with right when I am in that situation. I guess you also feels the same as me.
Haha in the end truth and success can be obtained when there is luck and instinct can not work well at all, so far I have never known or seen someone who can get series of consecutive wins just because they have sharp instincts.
Everything can be success also cannot be separated from luck and knowledge or accuracy in analyzing to predict, instinct becomes kind of suggestion that may indeed influence person mind in certain conditions.

Lately I don't trust my instinct anymore because when I did , I ended up picking wrong games , wrong teams and sometimes even the wrong sports so no more instinct for me. I just place bets plain and simple by just going with the flow and I must say it's way better than "listening to your instinct and then blame yourself because you listen it or not" and that is the awful part of it.
I think that's how instinct works Cheesy
It's more psychological and that's how gambling works, it's doesn't mean you keep losing when you trust or follow your instinct it's already not working, remember gambling = luck.
Sometimes, it's your instinct that is telling not to listen or listen to your instinct Wink

If so, it means that you are using pure business predictions such as utilizing available information by considering it when you are going to determine which team you will choose to be favored. This is good, because there are also gambling that requires skills to increase the chances of winning even though there is no guarantee either. Cheesy

I myself rarely follow my instincts when gambling, but with my friend who always follows his instincts like he feels that there will be a victory that will be obtained at that time then he will gamble even though he does not have money he will find a way to make money and gamble. I think instinct is not something that we must obey for sure because the results are not guaranteed to be positive.

Yes, that means instinct can be used as a second option when you are really confused in making decisions especially when you do not know which team is far superior, I have also done it when I bet on a match where both teams are really in good form, but of course when you use instinct then you must be really aware of the risks, or you must be really able to account for whatever the results are especially defeat because usually the instinct is 50-50 between winning and losing, but of course as you said if for example we feel able to analyze the match then it is better to avoid using instinct.

For sports games like football a gambler will have to experience express losses should he try to depend on his instinct to make his predictions on games. In football you have to be aware of the strength of different teams that are in good form and are dominating in the league because these are what will guide your predictions mostly. Am not disputing the place of instinct especially in games that the two teams in a match are of equal strength you can turn to your instinct and see what could come out of it, sometimes you just get lucky with it but it's nothing to depend on for constant bet wins.
Not really if you trust your instinct can help you to pick the right choice and you are confuse with the option. But yes, I agree with you that nothing to depend on for constant bet wins so we can only have fun with our bet and not expecting too much. If we realize that each team have a chance to win, that can make us feel difficult to choose the team so we can count on our instinct to help us deciding. We are playing gambling for have fun and release our stress and not to add more stresses from gambling so we should enjoy our time in gambling.

I personally experienced the instinct to be right in most of the bets. I used to watch the odds and different betting options available for a match. By the time my inner mind used to say that the specific team would win, I just kept that in mind. I've experienced it several times, and the prediction used to be correct, and I never used to bet upon the instinct. If I go forward and bet, the same turns out to be a loss. I've felt it, and even I've given suggestions to friends when they pick the other odds. Later they used to say, I should've chosen the odd suggested by you. When we think freely, the same turns out to be a win, and when we're to risk money, our minds will have the fear of losing, which doesn't let us choose the odds with free thinking.

Everyone has what works for them. You tried listening to your instincts, and it's all landed in over zero out of the games you pick, and you have made your correction step from that.
 
Those who feel it still works for them will still keep on playing based on it; that's what gambling is also all about. On the other hand, using the method that works for you, which is not more peaceful than analysing your own games based on the data present, you decide which team and game you are to stake your money on.

So sorry about your experience though and from what you have said, I think there's the possibility that it likely might not work for everybody. Sometimes, there's also the possibility that one might not be stable to really take what their inner mind is telling them as a result of their instability and they just assume something not really correct. Most times it takes calmness for one  to listen to their inner mind to get clues of what they want to hear.

It seems to me that the choice of bet also depends on the opinion of bookmakers, because it is difficult for me to bet against their odds, I am not ready to bet on high odds, that is, I cannot bet against a favorite, even if I assume that this can be a good bet (that is, my intuition tells me about it). And I try to look for a bet where my choice coincides with the opinion of the bookmaker, then it is easier for me to bet, but this does not guarantee that I will definitely win, there is no place for intuition here, there is more of a logical approach.

In the end where does instinct landed many gamblers? In debt, depression, and addiction, this shows how useless your instinct can be in gambling, it is not the solution.

Gambling will remain under probability and no man's instinct can make them to keep winning, the earlier we accept this the better it will be for every gamblers, no one is capable to be a God of gamblers it only happens in the movies.

Put your instincts aside, learn how to be responsible with your money, gambling knows no man, the house will mostly be the winner.

Instinct of stopping or pausing your gambling activities when you feel you have no more funds to use. Then, you are using your instincts on the positive note.
Also, you don't need to wait for your instincts to kick in, if you have no more allocated funds for this addictive game.. I guess, you need to stop and look for other worthwhile activities.

I think it should be more about common sense and logical thinking to be able to make wise decisions after you lose all your funds or when you have no funds at all to gamble, but I am quite sure that the decision not to gamble or not to continue gambling after losing or when you have no money will most likely only be done if for example you realize that if for example you force something that is beyond your ability then it is not good and that awareness will also make a gambler prefer to find other activities as you said to distract himself and his attention from gambling.

It has been discussed over and over again but I guess, it now lies on the gambler himself how he will control himself in front of the games. That's the usual dilemma of a gambler - how he can contain himself in gambling and not to go deep in this addictive activity.

Sometimes nature has its own way of doing things which we can not understand, it prevents occurrences and also makes things happens positively if only we are very much attentive to some signs it gives out before we taking actions. I believe we all here have  our mind and our instinct tells us much more of occurrences  before they take place to our consciousness.  I will like to relate it to us that are into gambling and hear how our experience has been like so far.

I have had this experience on several occasion were I would be having this feelings to bet on a particular game which sometimes I ignore and the game turn out to be a perfect one and in some cases I bet and win and also when my instinct does not allow me to bet I just go ahead for fun and it turns out to be a bad one though which I just did for fun but at the entire end I have this feelings in me that I should not have gambled that game maybe I should have just watched for fun and do my things. It just happens sometimes that we do have that feelings and when it occurs, some are sensitive enough to listen to their instinct while some do not really understand why they feel that way and after playing, they have a bad time and call it a luck based thing. Do you really have such experience sometimes when you want to gamble? and if you do how was the turn of event when you listened to your instinct and also the other way round.
Yahh we're having these kind of gut feelings or instincts that tell us if there's going to be a good hit or nothing especially in gambling. Sometimes you feel strong on a certain game that you'll gonna win this but didn't value the instinct and loss. But I know that these weird instincts that win us is because of the experience we have. The more experiences we have, it turns out great because of how we choose things. You learned from your win and loss that's why the rate of choosing the jackpot through instinct is very possible like higher 50%. But of course, you should still play analytical and by experience, money is on the line and you shouldn't rely on instincts only.

Yes money is on the line and not at all times advisable to rely on instincts but sometimes technical analysis could be carefully considered before making any decision so as not to regret aftermath. Sometimes, if we can, we can just allow our instinct lead us through but if we doubt the process, then we can as well do our analysis to factor out the possible outcome or result of whatever the play may be. But above all, we should know that in every game played, there must be a winner and there must be a looser so the results varies and our inputs according to our analytical view.

That's good if your instincts didn't failed you because many gamblers won't trust their intuitions anymore because for how many times they have failed. I'd ignore my instincts at times because it's not that good at all to rely on it and that's the reason why I don't like being on it anymore. But just as you, there are times that I cannot ignore it and that could have been the reason as well why I was able to win some but that's not happen as a daily thing to me.
There are people that have a good instinct that is able to let them know when to gamble and when not to gamble.
Once we are good with our instincts and we know when to take action, we would not have problem trying to make money from gambling when we have already gotten that signs that it's a good time to try luck. This is only work for gamblers that have trained themselves to be disciplined no matter the attraction they keep getting when their instincts have not given them the go ahead.
I wouldn't still be confident with myself even if I've got the best instincts, it's all about confidence and not at all times we're going to be like this. And associating it with the potential of making money from our bets, if you're confident that you can do that, you're free to do it. What matters is that your instincts would probably sense some harm or big loss that's about to come rather than big wins.

Instincts are full of emotions that’s why I don’t let my instincts rule over my critical thinking, that will only lead me to greater losses based on my personal experience. However, there are also times that we are already betting based on the command of our instincts unconsciously, something that we can’t do nothing about it. But as much as possible, if you want to bet and maximize your profits, it’s better to bet based on your real analysis and deep assessment on the game, most particularly in sports betting.
I agree. Sometimes, it's right but there are moments that they're not. So, if we're allowing our instincts to intrude to us, we need to make sure that there will be no regrets afterwards if we adhere to what we felt by that time.

Yea, they are always the winner, irrespective of how well the gambler might want to train himself to be the house always ends up winning.

Being responsible can reduce the amount of money that can be spent while gambling but doesn't guarantee how much we can profit from it, but a lot of gamblers don't understand that they place their winnings on their instinct and skill, which increase their confidence and lead to wagering with almost certainty that they will be winning, which ends up being the opposite.

While gambling my instincts are mostly wrong. I am speaking from the aspect of a slot player. My instincts is just my emotions that wants me to win. In fact I don't trust my instincts. I follow the plan I have which is usually, deposit $50 - $70, pick my favourite slot game, do my spins, if I win, I withdraw my winnings. And If I lose, I try another day. I think that instincts come into play for games of skills rather than games of luck. Games where you have to really do your own homework, research, and put in your own efforts. That is where instincts may work.

Yeah I don't think your instincts will or are gonna count in a game of pure luck like slot games because most times you don't get to do anything as everything is luck based so your instincts have no influence whatsoever although there might be instances when your instincts will tell you to buy free spins rather than try out direct play as normals. I think where your choice of actions really matters is for games like soccer or any sports betting.
